I Wanna Touch U - a Saviott story

Love and Affection

(Short note: Smut warning at the end of the chapter!)

They had had an amazing time that night, just like Joe had predicted.

Joe had led his lover to a small restaurant tucked away in a corner of a street where they sometimes went shopping, but Sav had never noticed it being there before. When they had stepped inside, the bassist held his breath for a moment. The whole room was only lit by candles that were placed on the few ebony tables, the ceiling veiled by a dark blue satin-like fabric and a playlist of ballads playing in the background. The middle of the room was cleared to provide space for some slow dancing, what four obviously enamoured couples were already doing. Sav had a feeling he would end up on that dance floor with Joe's arms around him before the night was over. In total there were about twelve other couples in there, all seemingly in their own worlds and not even looking up as the two young men entered the location.

A friendly-looking waiter in a dark suit finally came up to them, smiling brightly and showing his dimples and perfectly white teeth. Joe returned the smile immediately while Sav still looked around, an expression of a very positive surprise evident on his face. The waiter politely nodded at the singer and then asked him if he had booked a table.

"Um, yes, it was on the name Elliott. Joseph Elliott."

He received another nod of approval from the waiter, who then turned and gestured them to follow him to a table away from the other people. It was a gorgeous one, Sav noticed, created with much love. There were two chairs opposite of each other, created by the same dark ebony the tables were made of, and had a fluffy dark blue pillow on each of them. The menus were written by hand, as you could see by the black ink that shone in the soft candlelight created by the two big candles sitting in the middle of the table. Sav loved it and he knew by Joe's expression that he did too.

"I'll leave you to read the menu and settle in, just call me when you're done with picking something."

The two of them nodded thankfully at the waiter, who turned and walked away to leave them in peace. Joe immediately grabbed the back of the chair Sav had reached for, pulling it backward and gesturing him to take a seat.

"Take a seat please, my lady", he added with a wink, and Sav blushed, gently flipping him off when he called him a lady. But the bassist took a seat, either way, grabbing Joe's hand before he could slip away to the other side of the table and take his seat. The singer turned to him with a raised eyebrow, but as Sav pulled him down a bit he knew why.

"Thank you for everything, babe. I just... We've only walked in and I already know that I love it. Thank you for spending your time with me, this means more to me than you will ever know."

Joe blushed and just as he was about to give his bassist a modest reply, the latter silenced him with a gentle kiss, his eyes fluttering closed and his whole senses concentrating on the soft contact, almost making him whimper in disappointment as the curly-haired pulled away and gestured over to the other chair. So the singer smiled and walked over to the other side of the small round table, laying his one hand onto the tabletop as soon as he had sat down, what resulted in the bassist's hand covering his own and interlocking their fingers while they were both reading the menu.

"I'll probably take the lasagna, its ingredients sound delicious", Joe stated after a while, his thumb absently caressing the back of his lover's hand as he put the menu down and gazed fondly at Sav. The latter was still studying all the tasty-sounding meals listed on the menu, biting his plump bottom lip in thought. Joe wanted to reach over and soothe it, then kiss those lips that felt and tasted like heaven and never ever let him go again. God, he was so in love.
